It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Why these games?
Also, what is up with Polish people?
All Polish people born after 1989 know is nationalism, catholicism, free-marketism and lie
You forgot "eat hot pierogi"
The only characteristic I can agree with.
Poland is a state of mind.
Smh i can't even post the only cool Poland flag because it was the same as current.
Actually there is one inconsequential difference! A slightly different shade of red :^)

Yes, now it's crimson and was vermillion, but note how the crimson was already used by PRL since the 80's and vermillion was used by the interwar Poland too. So both colours has been used by both communists and fascists.
Somewhat like Cuba then... Welp, I've got an emoji idea then: :bez-korony: which probably you can guess.
Unfortunately, a lot of us have extra strong brainworms. Nationalism + dogmatic free-market liberalism.
Family values
This "joke" is touchy for me. My country went through suffering not too dissimilar from colonialism. No matter of my country being part of the imperial bloc now, I as a communist am proud of my fore-fathers resisting this oppression, and even helping Haiti win it's independence.
There was nothing good that came out of partitions, and even now today that period is being used and abused by our right wing propaganda to fuel xenophobia.
I find this "joke" reactionary and hope you can do better next time. You can be critical of Poland in other and more relevant ways, but this ain't it.
Thank you, I suggest reading Marx's and Engels's speeches on the 17th anniversary of the uprising of 1830.
Unfortunately they are no longer available on marxists.org

Best I can do now is make you photos of my copies I have in the first volume of their selected works. Unfortunately all's in Polish.
I hope some translation tool out there helps you with this, otherwise I wish you luck on finding something in English.
Edit: it seems it's all out of order... Fuck, I'm too lazy to fix it now.
Edit 2: Turns out I'm a tired idiot. The links aren't the speech I meant, the 17th anniversary of 1830 is the wrong one and the links should've pointed to the second anniversary of the Cracov uprising which is the one photographed. Apologies, will leave the links as they are though.
Oooo! A mirror site! That's good to know. Thanks.
The collected works in English are on libgen, you can copy paste from there
Oh that's correct. I should've thought of that...
